Ep. 27 - Why Every Birth Deserves a Doula: C-Section Support & Advocacy with Breanne Ferrara

Jen and Bethany are joined by special guest Breanne Ferrara, a birth doula and midwife birth assistant, to discuss the invaluable role doulas play in all birth experiences—including planned and unplanned C-sections. Brea shares how doulas provide emotional, informational, physical, and postpartum support, helping birthing individuals feel empowered and heard in any setting. The conversation dives into the challenges and advocacy efforts surrounding whether doulas are allowed in the OR during C-sections, how they support VBAC births, and why birth education and continuous learning are essential for both parents and birth professionals. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about how doulas can make a difference in every birth—whether vaginal or c-section—and how we can push for greater support and inclusion in hospital policies.
